Way to go!! I have lost 21 since surgery. I had a bit of a stall when I went to pureed foods. I think I had lost a lot of muscle weight during the pre-op liquid and post op. I went back to work on the 9th, so my activity level increased about 500%. I was having a hard time getting in protein, but doing better now. Staying hydrated is a little hard. At work, I keep a small bottle with me that is a mixture of Powerade Zero, water, and ice. All my work clothes are too big now. Lol. [emoji176] [emoji176] [emoji176]

I was on clear liquids for a week. Now I am on full liquids. I had a little cream of chicken soup (strained) today. My program is pretty strict. [emoji176] [emoji176] [emoji176]

Good to hear! [emoji176] [emoji176] [emoji176]

How y'all doing? I am finally feeling more myself. Getting a few things done and resting often. [emoji176] [emoji176] [emoji176]

Just ate some sugar free jello now that I am home with a plastic spoon. It's not as bad now.

About an hour or so from Dollywood..lol

I just had surgery on the 26th. Ever since everything has had a metallic taste to it. I don't know if it was the hospital silverware or what. And it's like my sense of smell has suddenly became heightened. Is this normal?

I'm from East Tennessee. I lived in Nashville for 3 years though. Moved back to East Tennessee a year and half ago.

I have been taking children's gas drops for gas. It's helped a lot.

I had mine on the 26th!! Getting ready to be discharged!!

Hope it goes well!! I had surgery 12-26. The first day is not the greatest. Getting ready for discharge now. I feel much better. You've got this!!

I have a tentative date of 12-26.
